This guitar is nicely made, it may be unusable in a professional environment. Pick ups are so noisy, it is a big disappointment by Fender. I have to replace all the electronics to be able to use it. I know I only paid under $400 dollars for it and will have a great guitar once I do my hot rodding on it. Fender should already know what makes a good Telecaster, things like good shielding, quiet electronics, and good value. Shame on you Fender!

This guitar feels sooo nice. Its got the classic Tele twang I'll give it that. It was a steal at just under $400. The action's nice, the pickups are OK, etc.
It's not the greatest guitar I'll ever own- but it's an extremely reliable workhorse.
